Using the self-cleaning oven.

Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting your kitchen with

an open window or using a ventilation fan

or hood during the first self-clean cycle.
Remove racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all

cookware and any aluminum foil from the

oven.
The shiny, silver-colored oven racks (on

some models) can be self-cleaned, but they

will darken, lose their luster and become

hard to slide.
Soil on the front frame of the range and

outside the gasket on the door will need to

be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas

with hot water, soap-filled steel wool pads

or cleansers such as Soft Scrub

®

. Rinse well

with clean water and dry.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass

material of the oven door gasket cannot

withstand abrasion. It is essential for the

gasket to remain intact. If you notice it

becoming worn or frayed, replace it.

Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven

bottom.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in

place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT:

The health of some birds is

extremely sensitive to the fumes given off

during the self-cleaning cycle of any range.

Move birds to another well-ventilated

room.

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven

bottom.

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

Follow the directions in the 

Before a Clean

Cycle

section.

Latch the door.

Touch the 

SELF CLEAN

pad.

Touch the 

+

or 

pads until the

desired Clean Time is displayed.

The Clean Time is normally 4 hours. You can

change the Clean Time to any time between

3 and 5 hours, depending on the amount of

soil in your oven.

Touch the 

START/ON

pad.

The self-clean cycle will automatically

begin after 

CLEAN

is displayed and the

time countdown appears in the display.

While the oven is self-cleaning, you can

touch the 

CLOCK

pad to display the time of

day. To return to the clean countdown,

touch the 

SELF CLEAN

pad.

The oven shuts off automatically when the

clean cycle is complete, and 0:00 will flash

in the display.

Slide the latch handle to the left as far

as it will go and open the door.

It will not be possible to unlatch the oven

door until the temperature drops below the

lock temperature and the clean light goes

off.
When the clean light is off, unlatch the

door.

Never force the latch handle. Forcing the handle will damage the door lock mechanism.
